Times New Roman Means You're Lazy

I am experimenting with fonts today. In
my Professional Communications class, we watched a video of a comedian speaking
about the boredom of PowerPoint presentations. One of his comments was that
those who use Times New Roman are boring, lazy, and don’t care enough to choose
anything other than the default font.

My feelings were hurt when I heard
this. I love Times New Roman. Times New Roman and I have a great relationship.
It is always reliable and professional. I am beginning to think that I need to
expand my boundaries though…

What font do you use? Do you think that using a more
personalized font is less professional or does it make you more unique
(therefore a more desirable student/employee)? Do you think it changes whether or not you are using it in regards to business? Comment on this post via
Facebook and let me know what font you use and why!
